The only other example of this questionable practice I know of is Fallout 4. Pretty sure there have been others as well. It's not still a common thing, though. And I'm sure we don't want it to become a common thing.
Let's not forget that the idea of DLCs was outrageous not too long ago. Spin it however you want, but I think it's fair to expect the full game when you're paying the full price.
This is on a whole different level. I don't think charging for DLC more than the game is fair practice.
I wasn't sure if my i3 6100 can handle the game so, I put off buying it, and seeing this, I think I'm not gonna buy it at all, or just wait for the inevitable GOTY edition at a discounted price.
